Schalke also squandered a two-goal lead before scoring a controversial penalty in stoppage time to edge 10-man Sporting 4-3.Neymar and Lionel Messi scored in Barcelona's 3-1 win over Ajax. Messi's 69th career goal in Europe's top-tier competition moved him to within two goals of the all-time record set by Raul Gonzalez. He is tied with Cristiano Ronaldo before Real Madrid visits Liverpool on Wednesday.
